Love-hate. Love the sandblasted finish. Hate the jeweling.
But I love it when anybody brings an old sixgun back to life!

A work of art!
Yep, that's . . . different, all right.

Me too. I've never been a fan of jeweling on handguns. It does look very striking, though!
She's like a working girl trying too hard to look "uptown". :?

Nice work, good on you for bringing her back to life. Is it my imagination, or did you shorten the grip frame as well? Looks like a nice carry package.
OP
Didn't shorten the frame, it's a standard Speed Six. The grips I put on enclose the frame so are a bit wider so it makes it look shorter. The original grips were too beat up to salvage.

Great to see an old workhorse get a facelift!
Don't personally care for jeweled look, but I can appreciate it for a job well done!

If it were described to me, I'd say "Too much jewelling." But you know, seeing the photos -- it looks nice!
